I love mulled wine at holiday time. This simple recipe for Vin Brulé is easy and fun to make. It only has a few ingredients but it has a powerful flavor.
Take care when making it though. You set it aflame just before serving. Don’t let things get out of hand. It’s a stunning presentation and adds to the festive experience.
Traditional mulled wine can be a complicated affair with all kinds of spices and fruits added. This recipe is super simple and just as delicious.
